Seriously, I will always feel like I succeeded despite having gone here. The place is a joke and they totally chased away any of the good teachers that they had. Ms. Filippini was seriously the worst teacher I have EVER experienced - and I've got an advanced degree, so I've seen a lot. Who gives a class answers to a test beforehand as a study guide? What is the point? The shining gems of an otherwise useless building were: Mr. Virkus, Mr. Avery and Ms. Franson.

Lincoln Elementary School used to be a nice community for kids when Michelle Cooney was the…read morePrincipal. They did not do anything for kids who excelled, but at least it felt like kids were cared for. However, when Amber Samuels became the Principal, it had become a cold place for kids to sit through their day. Amber Samuels is abrasive with kids, as opposed to Michelle Cooney, who knew each child by name. She is also abrasive with parents and staff. Not having any kids herself, she lacks understanding children's development, and seems always annoyed at any behaviors that are less than just perfectly sitting still the whole day being quiet. I really wish someone from the District 65 administration reads this and realizes that she is not qualified for the job.

During my time at this school, I consistently felt that the environment lacked professionalism,…read moreaccountability, and positive leadership. Several staff members behaved in ways that made me uncomfortable and undermined my trust in the institution as a whole. One teacher, Lisa McGuire, often acted in ways I personally found inappropriate and unprofessional, particularly in her interactions with parents during school events. While I cannot verify rumors that circulated among students, her conduct left a lasting negative impression on me and made it difficult to respect her role as an educator. Overall, she felt more like a caretaker than a teacher focused on meaningful education. The school librarian also presented herself as an authority figure while contributing very little beyond basic job duties. Her attitude toward students felt dismissive and hypocritical, and this extended to how her family member was treated within the school environment. This created an atmosphere of favoritism rather than fairness. Ms. Mexicano frequently reported students and portrayed herself as a victim when her own mistakes were addressed. This pattern discouraged open communication and accountability, and it contributed to a culture where students felt targeted rather than supported. Additionally, a visiting police officer addressed students in a manner that felt more intimidating than educational. Emphasizing weapons and authority over dialogue or understanding did not inspire trust or respect. The situation escalated to the point where I was detained based on accusations that were ultimately unsupported, which deeply affected my view of how students are treated. Overall, this school failed to provide the guidance, inspiration, and responsible adult leadership that students deserve. Rather than fostering growth and safety, the environment often felt reactive, dismissive, and poorly managed. This experience was disappointing and, in my opinion, reflects a broader issue of inadequate oversight within the institution.

My children always come home and report how their day went and I would always hear unacceptable statements and responses from multiple staff members including substitute teachers. The principle Carrie Stange has a very rude, nonchalant attitude when it comes to my children (African American) Example: my daughter comes home and tells me she had a sub for her class today and that the sub told the kids in the classroom that (quote) " that's why Donald Trump doesn't like black people" so I call Fullerton to discuss the matter with the principle and she stated " the sub wasn't speaking about Black people that in fact she was speaking about Mexicans and that she is also a mexican" bottom line Dr. Stange is a principle whom is supposed to uphold her position with enough respect to not allow any form of discrimination within her school. I must say I am one happy parent that she has been back demoted to the director of education. I don't believe she deserves any higher authority than such, and with the nonchalant attitude I wish her the best of luck on her not so new journey maybe she will get it right this next go round. Good riddance!
